I check her temperature in the armpit. my pead told me to use 4ml of paracetamol if the temperature is more than 99. every morning her body temperature is 98.4 to 98.8. should i consider this as fever? her body is warm. not normal. but she is active. should I give paracetamol?

A. 98.4 to 98.8 F is normal temp n ur baby us also active.. no need to give paracetamol. A fever is usually considered to be a temperature of 38C (100.4F) or above.
